She admitted, &#8220;I&#8217;d always been so biased against Christianity for various reasons, mostly \u2064because of the \u200dbad \u2063reputation it&#8217;s\u200c gotten with causing wars,\u2063 and you think, \u2018Oh, Christians are these\u200d really judgmental people,\u2019 and \u2062all this religious stuff. The \u200ctruth \u2062is, \u2063Jesus was anti-religion. He was \u2064anti-religion, and I didn&#8217;t even realize that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>McKellar went on to explain how her perspective \u2063changed when her \u200dfriend Candace \u2064Cameron Bure invited her to church. It was a\u200d transformative experience that shattered her preconceived notions about\u200b the\u2063 faith.\u200b &#8220;I&#8217;ve been around Christianity\u200c my whole life in\u200d some way, shape,\u200d or\u2062 form, but \u200dit never really clicked,&#8221; she\u2064 admitted.<\/p>\n<p>The church visit had a profound \u200dimpact on McKellar. She described the feeling of no longer\u200b being alone in \u2062moments of solitude, stating, &#8220;You don&#8217;t feel alone anymore in your moments where you\u200b are by \u2062yourself. You&#8217;re \u200dnot alone. And\u200b the fact that \u200dthat&#8217;s available to everybody at any time.&#8221; She also discovered that religion was not the restrictive \u200bforce she had believed it to be, but\u200c rather the most freeing thing in the \u200cworld.<\/p>\n<p>McKellar expressed her gratitude to her friend for guiding her on this spiritual journey. She described it as a beautiful gift that she wants\u2064 everyone to experience.\u200c &#8220;It\u2019s just been a beautiful, \u200bbeautiful gift, and \u200bit\u2062 feels so good, and I want everyone to have \u2063that\u2063 feeling,&#8221; she \u2062said.<\/p>\n<h3>A New Chapter \u200din \u2063Life<\/h3>\n<p>In\u200d addition to her\u200d newfound \u200cfaith, McKellar recently made \u200ca significant\u200c change in her personal life. She relocated from California to just outside of Nashville with her son Draco \u2064and husband Scott Sveslosky. She describes this move as a &#8220;total quality of life improvement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Both McKellar and \u200bBure are involved\u2063 in Great American Family\u2062 movies, an alternative Christian television network that rivals the Hallmark Movie channel.
